it wasn't just a bad debate night. it's been a bad four years for president obama. but the next debate is not going to be a presidential debate. it will be a vice presidential debate and the pressure is on joe biden to live up to his reputation this week as a policy expert and as a skilled debater, but i expect he'll do just fine. this will be his 18th either presidential or vice presidential debate. he's had a lot of practice at it. paul ryan's first. but again, in that case, we think we have the facts and the issues on our side with the obama/biden team you'll get another four years like the last four years with the romney/ryan team, a real recovery with more jobs for everybody. >> now politico is reporting today that ann romney and tagg his son, one of his sons did an intervention to try to save the campaign if you will and let mitt be mitt and get the candidate to talk more about himself, talk more emotionally to give the foreign policy speech. in pushing back against some of the staff. can you help us out on that? what is the -- your perspective about it? >> i

on the one hand, his analysis from the speech isn't quite fair, romney was the same of what to continue the war in iraq that he was criticizing obama for not being able to come to agreement with the iraqi government on a continuing u.s. military of arrangement with the iraqis and the complete withdraw troops. he was and say let's keep fighting in iraq indefinitely. that being said, it clearly is a strong point for obama that he has managed to pull troops out of iraq and that he is announced a withdrawal timeline for afghanistan. that is something that is broadly supported by americans across the political spectrum and white romney is right now engaging in the delicate tightrope walk that i referred to earlier when it comes to foreign policy. he must do critique obama for not having a muscular nephew without actually going over the line in suggesting therefore i'm going to be using this goldplated military to talking about and also different situations because romney has not talked about afghanistan much during the campaign because the bottom line is even within his own party, americans
